Episode data types
- Download and read file in
download.file("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/swcarpentry/r-novice-gapminder/gh-pages/_episodes_rmd/data/gapminder_data.csv", destfile = "data/gapminder_data.csv")gapminder <- read.csv("data/gapminder_data.csv")We can also read in file from web
gapminder <- read.csv("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/swcarpentry/r-novice-gapminder/gh-pages/_episodes_rmd/data/gapminder_data.csv")- What do we have, we can run the
str()function on any R object:
str(gapminder) #str stands for structure ## 'data.frame': 1704 obs. of 6 variables:
## $ country : chr "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" ...
## $ year : int 1952 1957 1962 1967 1972 1977 1982 1987 1992 1997 ...
## $ pop : num 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 ...
## $ continent: chr "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" ...
## $ lifeExp : num 28.8 30.3 32 34 36.1 ...
## $ gdpPercap: num 779 821 853 836 740 ...- We can get it to open up in a tab in RStudio a couple of ways:
View(gapminder) #to look at it in a tab Data types
R has a few data types it is good be aware of:
typeof(gapminder$year)## [1] "integer"typeof(gapminder$lifeExp)## [1] "double"typeof(3.14)## [1] "double"typeof(TRUE) # logical ## [1] "logical"typeof(1L) # The L suffix forces the number to be an integer, since by default R uses float numbers## [1] "integer"typeof('bannana')## [1] "character"class(gapminder)## [1] "data.frame"typeof(gapminder$continent)## [1] "character"typeof(gapminder$country) #character## [1] "character"- No matter how complicated our analyses become, all data in R is interpreted as one of these basic data types.
- This strictness has some really important consequences.
typeof(gapminder$year)## [1] "integer"Vectors
- Let’s step back and talk a bit about vectors.
- Dataframes are a collection of vectors
- Vectors can only be of one type.
- When we create vectors this has important consequences - R will coerce types to be the same.
- lets create some vectors:
x <- c(1, 2.4, 3, 5) #what's the <- again?
x## [1] 1.0 2.4 3.0 5.0str(x)## num [1:4] 1 2.4 3 5typeof(x)## [1] "double"Couple of things * the c() function is used in R a lot - stands for combine and it will create a vector * there are other ways to create a vector but we use this a lot. * what happens if we create a mixed vector
y = c("dog", 1.4, 3.5, TRUE)
y## [1] "dog" "1.4" "3.5" "TRUE"str(y)## chr [1:4] "dog" "1.4" "3.5" "TRUE"typeof(y)## [1] "character"- What happened?
- Yes, R converted this vector to all characters, but quotes around them.
- This is b/c it wouldn’t know how to convert dog or TRUE to numbers.
- The coercion rules go: logical -> integer -> numeric -> complex -> character, where -> can be read as are transformed into.
- R has a number of functions that converts vectors between types, sometimes we need to do this, esp. if on read you data is something not expected.
as.numeric,as.logical,as.character
char_vector_nums <- c('1','2','3')typeof(as.numeric(char_vector_nums))## [1] "double"Data structures = realistic example
str(gapminder)## 'data.frame': 1704 obs. of 6 variables:
## $ country : chr "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" ...
## $ year : int 1952 1957 1962 1967 1972 1977 1982 1987 1992 1997 ...
## $ pop : num 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 ...
## $ continent: chr "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" ...
## $ lifeExp : num 28.8 30.3 32 34 36.1 ...
## $ gdpPercap: num 779 821 853 836 740 ...summary(gapminder$country)## Length Class Mode
## 1704 character character- What happened here?
- Let’s look up some help? What should i Run?
?summarysummary(gapminder$country) # tell us lenght of character vector ## Length Class Mode
## 1704 character character- But we want a diff summary, we’d lke to count up the occurances of our country.
- To do this we need to convert the country vector to a factor. What’s a factor? categorical variable, e.g. colors, breeds of dogs

## 516Now what if we want to permanently save
countryas a factor.We might not need to do this in in a real case b/c w can always do on the fly if needed, but we could need to do it so we can alter levels (they could be ordinal).
Let’s add the factor version of
countryat the end of gapminder as a new column. How would you think we do that?
gapminder$countr_fac <- factor(gapminder$country)str(gapminder)## 'data.frame': 1704 obs. of 7 variables:
## $ country : chr "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" ...
## $ year : int 1952 1957 1962 1967 1972 1977 1982 1987 1992 1997 ...
## $ pop : num 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 ...
## $ continent : chr "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" "Asia" ...
## $ lifeExp : num 28.8 30.3 32 34 36.1 ...
## $ gdpPercap : num 779 821 853 836 740 ...
## $ countr_fac: Factor w/ 142 levels "Afghanistan",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...Notice the difference.
Ok let’s look at some helpful methods to inspect the data.
typeof(gapminder$year)## [1] "integer"typeof(gapminder$country)## [1] "character"str(gapminder$country)## chr [1:1704] "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" "Afghanistan" ...str(gapminder$countr_fac)## Factor w/ 142 levels "Afghanistan",..: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...length(gapminder)## [1] 7typeof(gapminder)## [1] "list"- What’s a list?? a data structure can be thought of as a container of many different types of objects.
- All dataframes in R under the hood are list.
- But lists are important in R to be aware of b/c complex objects are lists
- This can include how statistical models are represented or plots
Let’s explore some other functions we can use to inspect dataframes:
nrow(gapminder)## [1] 1704ncol(gapminder)## [1] 7dim(gapminder)## [1] 1704 7colnames(gapminder)## [1] "country" "year" "pop" "continent" "lifeExp"

## 1 Afghanistan 1952 8425333 Asia 28.801 779.4453 Afghanistan
## 2 Afghanistan 1957 9240934 Asia 30.332 820.8530 Afghanistan
## 3 Afghanistan 1962 10267083 Asia 31.997 853.1007 Afghanistan
## 4 Afghanistan 1967 11537966 Asia 34.020 836.1971 Afghanistan
## 5 Afghanistan 1972 13079460 Asia 36.088 739.9811 Afghanistan
## 6 Afghanistan 1977 14880372 Asia 38.438 786.1134 AfghanistanSubsetting
What’s a column in a data frame, again?
Right, it’s a vector. Let’s pull out a column as a vector by itself and explore how we subset vectors.
life_exp <- gapminder[['lifeExp']]str(life_exp)## num [1:1704] 28.8 30.3 32 34 36.1 ...- let’s get the first element:
life_exp[1]## [1] 28.801- hwat about elements 3 & 7
life_exp[c(3,7)]## [1] 31.997 39.854- we use the
cfunction here - what about a series or sequence?
- first let’s see how to do one in R
1:4## [1] 1 2 3 4- Note this will expand to [1,2,3,4]
life_exp[1:4]## [1] 28.801 30.332 31.997 34.020- to skip we use negatives
life_exp[-1:4]Why didnt that work? Yes, -1:4 expands to -1,0,1,2,3,4
-1:4## [1] -1 0 1 2 3 4life_exp[-(1:4)]Also works:
life_exp[-c(1:4)]Data frames
- Bracket notation - if we use a single bracket with number, it will return
- Single column as a dataframe
head(gapminder[3])## pop

## $ pop: num 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 ...However if we use [[3]] it’ll return the column as a vector
head(gapminder[[3]])## [1] 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 14880372head(gapminder[["lifeExp"]])## [1] 28.801 30.332 31.997 34.020 36.088 38.438str(gapminder[[3]])## num [1:1704] 8425333 9240934 10267083 11537966 13079460 ...A vector.
Think about it via this image:
Peeling onion
$ dollar sign can pull out a column by name. A lot easier to remember names than their numbers.
head(gapminder$year)## [1] 1952 1957 1962 1967 1972 1977We can pull out by rows and columns by using two arguments in []

gapminder[gapminder$year == 1987, ]How about population greater than 15,000,000
gapminder[gapminder$pop >= 15000000,]Selecting elements of a vector:
- Selecting elements of a vector that match any of a list of components is a very common data analysis task
- gapminder data set contains country and continent variables
- Suppose we want to pull out information from southeast Asia:
- how do we set up an operation to produce a logical vector that is TRUE for all of the countries in southeast Asia and FALSE otherwise?
- Let’s walk thru this together & follow along:
seAsia <- c("Myanmar","Thailand","Cambodia","Vietnam","Laos")
## extract the `country` column from a data frame (we'll see this later);
## convert from a factor to a character;
## and get just the non-repeated elements
countries <- unique(gapminder$country)One way:

Instructions: We will group you up in room. Select one person to drive the computer, the others will give instructions on how to solve the problems. The driver shares their screen. Switch up half way thru for fun.

GGPLOT2 - 30min or less
- R-base has a plot function but less intuitive:
plot() - Ggplot2 should have been installed
But if not:
install.packages("ggplot2")library("ggplot2")- We will go over more of ggplot2 tomorrow.
- grammar of graphics - a way to express plots are layers of data and their visual expressions on a plot
- We select the data, map it to axis and tell ggplot how to represent it.
ggplot(data = gapminder, mapping = aes(x = gdpPercap, y = lifeExp)) +
geom_point()
- we can transform the axis using a log10 scale
ggplot(data = gapminder, mapping = aes(x = gdpPercap, y = lifeExp)) +
geom_point(alpha = 0.5) + scale_x_log10()
ggplot(data = gapminder, mapping = aes(x=year, y=lifeExp, by=country, color=continent)) +
geom_line()
Make the points stand out:
ggplot(data = gapminder, mapping = aes(x=year, y=lifeExp, by=country)) +
geom_line(mapping = aes(color=continent)) + geom_point()
ggplot(data = gapminder, mapping = aes(x=year, y=lifeExp, by=country, color=continent)) +
geom_line() + geom_point()
americas <- gapminder[gapminder$continent == "Americas",] #subset
ggplot(data = americas, mapping = aes(x = year, y = lifeExp)) +
geom_line() +
facet_wrap( ~ country) +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 45))
You’ll get hands-on tomorrow with Stephanie. Thanks everyone!
